Calexico joins host Stephen Kallao

Cumbias and Rancheras dot the landscape of El Mirador, the latest album from Southwestern Tex-Mex band, Calexico. Lead singer Joey Burns wanted to both physically and thematically return to Tucson, after moving to Boise, Idaho in 2020. Recorded at longtime member Sergio Mendoza’s house, El Mirador is about introspection and connectivity. Calexico joins host Stephen Kallao for an interview and performance.
